Acrylic Hexi Basics Stamp Set
Lavonne Jackson of Sew-N-Quilt has created a way to achieve
the look of English Paper Piecing in a fraction of the time.
Quilt stamps place a solid cutting line and a dashed sewing
line directly onto fabric, then you sew along the dashed line
with your sewing machine. The stamps are also clear, making
them the ideal tool for achieving consistent fussy cut designs.

TrueGrips
For straight, accurate cuts, you need to keep your ruler from
slipping. TrueGrips help you by adding a completely nonskid
surface to any ruler. The small adhesive rings may be applied
to the back of any quilting ruler, to avoid slippage. The clear
stickers won’t raise the ruler off the cutting surface or scratch
and damage cutting mats and fabric. These grips will help to
ensure cutting accuracy and safety.
